An Organic Wife

An Organic Wife is a blog
that I frequent, and a blogger that I interviewed. I wanted to give
Cristina a little shout out on Cupcakes & Cucumbers today because
she is a finalist in the Celebrate with Organic contest. If you get a
chance check out her blog, and then give her a vote!

I celebrate organic every day, by using fresh, organic ingredients,
local when possible. I celebrate the onions that make me cry, I
celebrate the zucchini that I bought too much of, and I celebrate the
farmer who grew it. Organic means no synthetic chemicals and
fertilizers, but it means so much more. It means I have a connection
with my food. When I support organic, I support safety for the
environment, my body, and the growers who brought it to my table. So, I
take time every day to make meals for myself and my husband from
scratch, using ingredients I am proud of and am blessed to have access
to. I give silent thanks for these gifts from the Earth – gifts that
haven’t been tainted and haven’t traveled far. But the best way I know
to celebrate organic is to eat my dinner, and enjoy every bite.

Also don't forget to read the interview we did on the blog at this link.

Don't forget about the $100 Amazon Gift Card Giveaway I have going on right now. You can find that blog post at this link.
